Hi,

 

Like Rao said, we need a few more details, the functionality should definitely work. Here is my mock setup for reference:

The output you can see in the (script) log is the result of me making a GET request of: http://localhost:9090/test?p=hello

 

Regards,

Rup

Using rupert_anderson 's code, the green 'play' button pops up the 'mockRequest is Null' warning, because the mock request object is not def'd up.

 

The mockRequest object is defined when a 'real' test executes the MockService endpoint.

 

To test code while writing it I put the following TestCode code and click 'play' until I am done.

Then I send a Test Step to call the MockService endpoint:

 

def mockRequestrequestContent = "" 
if (mockRequest != null) 
    mockRequestrequestContent = mockRequest.requestContent
else 
    mockRequestrequestContent = "<testRequestXmlOrJson/>" 
log.info(mockRequestrequestContent) 

//begin script

Note: The current version of SoapUI 5.50 doesn't have a log window at the bottom, trying to gather information to reply to your solution was challenging. I am new here, so might have missed a config setting somewhere :-)
